Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI) Packets, VCI sachets or VCI bags are small pouches or bags that contain a corrosion inhibitor encased in a permeable Tyvek pouch. It provides effective corrosion protection for a one-cubic-foot enclosed space.
Reliable Corrosion Prevention For Metals
VCI Packets are clean, safe, and non-toxic. It is fully recyclable and suitable for both ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Our VCI Packets are easy to use – place the unopened VCI packets near the metal components. The VCI elements will be released as a vapour or gas – forming a protective barrier around the metal surface and preventing the corrosive effects from moisture, oxygen, and other corrosive agents.
For maximum efficiency, the VCI Packets should be placed within 12 inches of the metal parts or electronics that require corrosion protection. To ensure effective corrosion protection, the VCI packets can be conveniently placed within packaging boxes, crates, or directly alongside metal components. They are commonly used in industries such as Aerospace, Automotive, Electronics, and Military.
- Corrosion Protection: Protects metal parts and electrical components from corrosion.
- Minimise Downtime: Reduces the risk of electrical failures and power outages.
- Extends Equipment Service Life: Capable of extending the service life of electrical equipment and components.
- Moisture Prevention: Act as a barrier against moisture condensation to protect metal surfaces.
- Sulfur Corrosion Prevention: Effective in high-humidity environments containing SOx
- Easy To Use: Minimal user training required to use VCI packets.
- Easy Application: Applying VCI packets is simple and straightfoward.
- Dual Mechanism: Mitigates corrosion issues by combining desiccants and VCI.
- Safe Disposal: Easy disposal through industrial landfills or through incineration process.
